Digitally re-mastered edition of the first collaboration between the former Deep Purple bassist & the former guitarist of Automatic Man, post-Steve Winwood Stomu Yamash'ta's Go and later of post-Steve Howe Asia. The album found a ready made audience in 1982 hard Rock circles as this project sound contemporary then, however since both protagonists overtly incorporated a new wave edge, these special recordings still retain their freshness all these years later. Word of mouth over the years has vastly expanded it's fan base and stature. Hughes remarks, I have lost count of the many people and musicians! who have put this CD at the top of their playlist. I am very proud of this project. Pat and I are an incredible team. He is a craftsman. There is a definite vibe on this gem. This edition adds 2 bonus tracks that were not available on the original album: Still the Night and Love Don't Come Easy. Hughes/Thrall 2 is scheduled to arrive in 2007.
